Nonviolent & Mindful Couples Communication Workshop

Do not worry if our harp breaks

thousands more will appear

We have fallen in the arms of love where all is music

If all the harps in the world

were burned down

still inside the heart there

will be hidden music playing

Do not worry if the all the

candles in the world flicker and die

we have the spark that

starts the fire

The songs we sing

are like foam on the surface

of the sea of being

while the precious gems

lie deep beneath.

But the tenderness in our songs

is a reflection of what is

hidden in the depths

Stop the flow of your words,

open the window of your heart and

let the spirit speak

Rumi

This is a 20 hour 8 module workshop based on the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and mindfulness.

The 8 modules covered are specific to couple dynamics and are delivered in an experiential group setting. Each module builds upon the previous one with the intention of creating a structured map to make sense of where we get stuck and disconnect, and how to move through our differences with care, regard and clarity.

Developing confidence and competence in this framework empowers us to make sense of our own feelings, needs and perspectives while also learning how to understand our partner's feelings, needs and perspectives. When we can move from a position of protectiveness, fear and blame towards curiousity, understanding and acceptance, we find that the opportunity to find a nuetral meeting ground and a richer and more rewarding connection opens up.
